* In the film ''Chutney Popcorn'', one of the main characters and some of her lesbian posse regularly comment on the women who walk past their store: "Dyke." "Dyke." "''Big'' ol' dyke."

* From ''ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan'' #54: Creator/SamRaimi, Avi Arad and Creator/TobeyMaguire are filming a ''[[Film/SpiderManTrilogy Spider-Man]]'' movie in New York, and [[ButtMonkey Spidey]] finds out he's not entitled to any of the profits. He goes to the set to give them a piece of his mind:

** "Do her, do her, wouldn't do her, do her, ah, who ''hasn't'' done her? Do her, lose the pigtails and we'll talk, do her, do her..." Just the words leave out some important parts of this: A. This was being said by ''Stewie'' (who is a talking baby). B. He indicated who by pointing and the camera shifts after a few words to show he's pointing at ''[[ToyShip other babies]]''. C. This takes place at a ''funeral''.

You might be sorting through your mail. You might be [[TerribleIntervieweesMontage interviewing candidates for a job]]. You might be [[RummageFail digging]] through a pile of AppliedPhlebotinum for something useful. You might even just be [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment sorting through your mail]]. What matters is that you're making a quick series of snap judgments, and, this is ''key'', you voice each one.

** Spike's description of Giles's life in "[[{{Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS5E18Intervention}} Intervention]]": [[SpotOfTea Cup of tea]], cup of tea, almost got shagged!, cup of tea.

** Variation in [[Recap/DoctorWhoS33E2DinosaursOnASpaceship "Dinosaurs on a Spaceship"]], after the Doctor picks up Amy and Rory (and Rory's dad) for his latest adventure:

* ''WesternAnimation/MrPickles'' has a sort of variation on this in the episode about the eponymous pup's doghouse. Sheriff and Grandpa are walking through various rooms while Sheriff drones about their contents with obvious DarknessInducedAudienceApathy
--> '''Sheriff:''' Skulls... skulls... more skulls
--> Blood... blood... more blood
--> Jacuzzis filled with nipples... jacuzzis filled with nipples... even more jacuzzis filled with nipples
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}''. Notable in that Bender tosses the stack of junk ''and bills'' in the trash as soon as he gets to the plot relevant letter.

* ''Fanfic/TheMLPLoops'': Used in Loop 202.18 by Vinyl Scratch when going through a chest that holds part of her sunglasses collection (she finally finds [[Webcomic/SchlockMercenary Kevyn Andrayson]]'s sunglasses in the ''second'' chest she looks in):

** Man checking beer bottles at the Duff brewery in "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS4E16Duffless Duffless]]": "Fine, fine, mouse, fine, mouse, rat, fine, syringe..." And then shortly after that, while the checker is distracted by Barney, UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler's [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments head goes by]]!

--> Jacuzzis filled with nipples... jacuzzis filled with niples... even more jacuzzis filled with nipples

* ''WesternAnimation/LittleBill'' Has this happen to Big Bill; He just says that a series of envelopes is for him, in a tone which implies that they're bills. Then he perks up when he sees a letter for Little Bill, and he gives it to him.

'''Brock:''' ''[groans]'' ''[crushes them]''.

* One version of ''Film/PrideAndPrejudice'' has Elizabeth narrating a flashback of her horrible blind dates. Too tall, too short, actually her second cousin, illiterate, etc.

* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer''
** Faith did this when describing her boyfriends: ''"Ronny: deadbeat; Steve: klepto; Kenny: drummer..."''
** Spike's description of Giles's life: [[SpotOfTea Cup of tea]], cup of tea, almost got shagged!, cup of tea.
** In the fourth season premiere, "The Freshman", Sunday, the MonsterOfTheWeek, goes through a victim's CD collection: "Boring, boring, boring, boring...astonishingly boring. We, we have to kill some cooler people, will someone please remind me?"

** On an episode of ''Series/TheDailyShow'', Jon Stewart takes it upon himself to answer some of President Bush's questions: "Yes, no, four, the Niña the Pinta and the Santa María, and it's a trick question: the surgeon is a woman."

** In "Joker's Millions" Joker plays out this trope looking for a replacement for Harley Quinn. He takes a ''long'' pause on a large, fat man before dismissing him. Then after he makes his choice, he promptly muses if he should have gone with the fat guy. Even funnier when you realize the guy was an [[InkSuitActor animated caricature]] of Harley Quinn creator Creator/PaulDini.
** Another episode, "Mad Love", has the Joker rejecting possible capers as being "Boring. Lame. Not funny. Been done. Too Riddler!"

** "Treehouse of Horror XII," whilst searching for a leprechaun:

** Man monitoring the x-ray machine at the power plant: "Clean. Clean. Pistol. Uzi. [[TotemPoleTrench Two kids posing as an adult]]..."
** "Bill. Bill. Ooh, Llib! Wait a minute..." He turns it the right way up. "Bill! Springfield University Homecoming!"
** "Third notice... third notice... ooh, second notice (Homer drops the notice down a storm drain)..."
** Homer at a swap meet, sifting through a treasure trove of [[GrailInTheGarbage extremely valuable items on sale for a pittance]]: "Junk... junk... [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_Jenny the airplane's upside down...]], Stradi-who-vius?"
** Bart reading prayers posted on the Wailing Wall: "Sad, sad, sad, never gonna happen, sad, maybe if you were Brad Pitt..."

** Marge's "Family Head count" is a variation.

** "Treehouse of Horror X" had Chief Wiggum using an airport X-ray scanner to check the children's candy. When examining Ralph's candy, he had this to say:

** In one episode:

** The episode where they talked about Bart's birth.

** In another episode, Homer just tosses all of the mail in his George Foreman's Mail Sorter, which separates the positive mail and cooks the unwanted mail (a Visa bill, a jury summons and an invite to a party thrown by Patty and Selma) into a pressed patty.

* The 'sorting through post' version has been featured in every BritCom in existence like ''Series/FawltyTowers'' and ''Series/{{Blackadder}}''. ''Series/RedDwarf'' has this too, with Lister listing the mail, complete with Rimmer snarking through the whole thing. "Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, ''you'', me, me, me ... SMEG! Outland Revenue!" The revenue letter [[spoiler:turns out to be for Rimmer.]]

* ''Series/SabrinaTheTeenageWitch''

* ''ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}''

* {{ComicStrip/Dilbert}}: The engineers are sorting through resumes submitted for a new position. "We've got resumes in pencil... crayon... pencil... eyeliner..."

* ''ComicStrip/BabyBlues'': [[http://babyblues.com/comics/january-22-2007/ The January 22, 2007]] strip may be the TropeNamer.

* In ''[[http://sandtree.livejournal.com/tag/sims The Sims 2: Election '08]]'' webcomic (for lack of a better term), [[http://sandtree.livejournal.com/236306.html Obama goes around asking all the other candidates]], "Do you like what you see?" The answers? "Too black." "Not enough makeup." "Too Obama!"
